Wigan away could well be a difficult game on Wednesday.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Great chance for Caldwell.

Torres nooooooooo

 

[yellow submarine]

Yeah... Barca are going to batter Chelsea.

They won't even need the Unicef conspiracy powers to win if Chelsea perform as they have done today. Cech is going to have the stretching workout of his life in that match.

 

[Broder Salsa]

MATAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA after Torres hammers it on the post.

 

[Fantomex]

Torres deserves credit for that.

 

[BlindCommunication]

Lol that "assist" from Torres. At last a goal for Mata, nice.

Poor Wigan

 

[Labadal]

Things actually happen when Torres doesn't slip.

 

[Ushojax]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Wigan have been shat on today.

 

[Kyoufu]

Fuuuuuuuuuck

 

[Shatner's Bassoon]

Mata you sexy bastard.

 

[Carbonox]

Fuck sake. Wigan y u no hold out.

 

[Vivalaraza]

What a volley from Torres.

 

[WJD]

Wish that had been Torres' goal.

 

[offshore]

Fuuuuuuuuuu

 

[Willkiller]

Fuck you wigan

 

[FootballFan]

Then he would probably have given a penalty for that handball before.

Not entirely true, sometimes the refs will give a opposite call to look neutral.
Like when Barca bought the refs there was still calls against us, its just for the illusion.

eg. Abidals red card against Chelsea
or Militos offside goal for Inter

edit
sorry if sarcasm is hard to detect in this post.
fixed

 

[Hixx]

Get in Chelsea etcs

Now if Villa would score... or is that being greedy?

 

[flyover]

;_; Wigan

 

[GorillaJu]

Holy FUCK what a tackle by Hendo

 

[Carbonox]

It's OK, Arsenal will lose tomorrow. Newcastle will beat Bolton and we'll be 4th!

 

[GQman2121]

Torres could have possibly had a hat trick today. He's had that many legitimate chances since coming on.

 

[Kyoufu]

Fucking shitty cunt refereeing today. Disgraceful. Send this guy off to the Scottish Premier League.

 

[Choc]

i personally think this rule of non English referees in English euro games is dumb

same with spain/spain etc etc

If the referee is the best suited, put them in the game for fuck sake. Basically UEFA is implying every referee is biased to its home country.

It leads to not the best referees officiating the semis/final

because most of the powerful teams (chelsea, madrid etc) also come from the nations with the best and most experienced officials (spain, italy, england)

 

[Hixx]

Holy FUCK what a tackle by Hendo

does not compute

 

[Ushojax]

Chelsea might have got the 3 points, but they were outplayed by Wigan at home and a moronic offside goal was allowed to stand. No chance of top 4 with their run-in.

Only justice left is for Newcastle to tear them apart later.

 

[GorillaJu]

He charged full speed from way behind the villa player and did a beautiful swipe tackle from behind, kept possession and came back into the attack. possibly the best thing I've ever seen him do in a Liverpool shirt. Then he tracked back during a counter and blocked a vital pass in a 2v4.

Fucks sake. We deserved this win.

 

[Vivalaraza]

First time Chelsea have won back to back games since January?

Barcelona are going to eat them. Won't be pretty.

Fun afternoon.

 

[Arnie]

does not compute

I know, was strange, fucking class tackle though.

We made more chances in that five minutes of extra time than the rest of the game. Thought we'd won it at one point. Oh well.

 

[Kyoufu]

Since the results haven't gone my way, I fully expect City to lose tomorrow.

Ridiculous how much more energetic the team looked after scoring that goal, it was completely in contrast to the many crap performances they've put in in recent weeks.

Liverpool should definitely feel hard done by with that result, some serious bad luck with deflections and post hits.

I think there were 3 or 4 points where I thought we'd won it.

Fuck me, heart is racing. If nothing else, they gave a hell of a performance. I can't be too angry with that draw. Points don't mean much to me, but good team play, desire, and a bit of improvement is what I appreciate about it.

Just came back to my apartment

AMAURI?????????????????????????????????????

Saw MI4 the other day. It was okay, certainly not as great as some were trying to convince me. I had a hard time getting into it because of the terrible plot. Spoiler:

Nuclear war? Nukes? Are you kidding me? What is this, the 80's?

The first MI was the best, the others are meh.

We're jammay as all fuck. Wigan deserved a draw.

I don't see a problem with that. Other European leagues have excellent referees as well and some even exceeding the PL standard this season. The only real problem is during the European/World Championship where smaller participating nations are also represented by a referee (RAP).

 

[Vivalaraza]

Not sure how Liverpool didn't win.

Will sound harsh but...really, it's not bad luck, been at least 5 games like that at Anfield this season. Need to find a way to win those.

Fun afternoon.

We still have Palermo x Juventus in half an hour, and Nazio x Napoli after it. Good day for me to go back to watching Serie A.

Outplayed? Get out of here. Wigan deserved a draw but by no means even close to being outplayed by Wigan, Drogba could easily have scored a few too and with a shot stat of 15-6 in Chelseas favour and 55-45 ball possession....

We still have Palermo x Juventus in half an hour.

That wont be fun. Will be self torture.

 

[Yurt]

United-GAF, fucking love you guys <3

So, Juve is getting on the first place tonight. We lost against one of the most awful team of the Serie A, maybe the worst one, worse than Novara, Lecce and Cesena.

We played like complete crap today, why was Cassano on the field today? Why? He isn't even fully fit. I really think we lost the Scudetto today.

Nah, there's still a few draws left in our team.

If Juve don't at least score 3 goals today they must have the most incompetent strike force in Serie A.

Define force?

Spoiler

We're

One scored and redeemed himself, one still has to. C'mon guys, you owe us. A (former) juventino always pays his debts!

Now aint that the truth

 

[BlindCommunication]

Good enough performance from LFC indeed, shame the team has zero confidence in front of the goal. After Suarez scored, the players looked much more energized for sure. Disappointing result considering how the game played out.

Oh, there is B. Mgladbach x Herta too. They are airing Bundesliga-Serie A games only here today, no PL or La Liga, weird.

Will sound harsh but...really, it's not bad luck, been at least 5 games like that at Anfield this season. Need to find a way to win those.

I don't think it's bad luck either. There were so many wasted shots, so many bad crosses, a good 20-30 minutes of really poor passing and some absolutely atrocious shooting by Dirk Kuyt.

We have one player on the team who actually wants to score goals. Suarez plays like a false 9 but we don't have anyone of his (or near his) quality to be there up front when he pulls back. Gerrard isn't playing as far forward as he used to...

Too many problems to list. We need a new striker. Carroll is damn near useless.

 

[bjaelke]

That wont be fun. Will be self torture.

The alternative is Stoke vs Wolves.

 

[rodvik]

Good result for us. I didnt expect to get anything from Anfield with a threadbare squad, a point will do. Thank you Shay Given 8)

How long have they sponsored Scottish League football for?

We're

We can (and probably will) lose at least one or two matches.

1 - Today in #MilanVSFiorentina Amauri scored his 1st goal since April 2011, and the 1st in 11 league appearances with the Viola. Return

We make dead people score, basically.
